I agree with Semmerset that adding in healing or necro/ss combo would be a good idea. I think I would personally go with the necro/ss combo because you can keep getting mana on many foes that will let you cast spells and I have always found mana to be hard to get. That being said using healing is a bit easier for new characters. The only other good advice I can give is get yourself tons of consumables and start practicing. You need to have and know how to use a trap box (set up the macro now), apples and pots. Its just a part of the upper tiers of the game and practicing when your starting makes it much easier to master. I am still trying to undo the damage I caused when I first started in the late 90's by not using pots. Hell even after being back for 3 years I have trouble always remembering to chug. So get that out of the way now if you can. Also if your using mystic remember that cleansing winds is your friend. Set that macro and get good and launching it. (As an aside Semmerset thank you for coming in here and sharing the knowledge from the Japanese shards some of the most fun and useful temps I have run I have gotten from the Asian shards. Your English is better then at least 3/4 of the internet and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. If you ever are on Chesy please come visit me!)

To get necro/ss I should drop something. And I don't see what I could drop.
At the moment I don't have problem with mana even when I cast 5 spells in a row. (With one exception - rare situations when I was Mana Drained)

How much boxes I'd need to keep with me for PvM? Some monsters try to paralize you every few seconds. I don't want to carry 150-200 stones equipment when PvM.
Healing Potions doesn't work for me. Every time I try to use one I get a message something like "you have just got healed by some other method so you shoud wait for a cooldown".

When healing from a Healing Stone is not enough I usually use Close Wounds. It seems to faster than cleansing winds. When I know that I have enough time to cast spell I use cleansing winds because it heals almost two times more (50+) damage.
